I was just thinking he turns 20 a week before mine do. What's he doing nowadays? And how's your daughter?
My only daughter is back from her second year of seminary in Israel, came back a couple weeks before the program had been scheduled to end. She cooked and cleaned for Passover and now she's baking a lot and tutoring my "baby" (he's 9) and running things that I'm too busy to take care of. She's also working on a degree with an online college, I think she's going for psychology. Her twin is still taking his college courses, but all online now of course. He hates it, said if he had wanted online college he would have signed up for online college to begin with. But he's muddling through anyway, he goes to the local community college, I believe majoring in cyber security. The next one under them is in 12th grade, doesn't care that they cancelled Regents because he wasn't scheduled to take any anyway. Doesn't know what he's doing next year. And the baby, in 3rd grade. He makes me crazy, thank God.
So, everyone's kids are getting grown up. What's everyone up to now?

Mine had a nice day today. I took them to the pasture and had a lot of grass. Trees offer good shade. When I took them back home I scratched their butts. They liked it so much that they didn't want to let me go - which is actually what always happens.
Adina was here for almost two years and you never told me?! Seriously?! We would have had her for a Shabbat!

As previously mentioned, the IGlet is now 20 years old. He is studying early childhood education at the community college and plans to finish and get certified at a four year college. He's got a girlfriend who he met in 11th grade and is basically part of our family at this point. I haven't paid a dime for his education yet -- between scholarships, his job at a local pharmacy, and the money he's making on his YouTube channel, his education has been self-funded so far. And he's still the kind of person everyone wants to be around; he just has such a positive, magnetic personality. He's just one of my best buddies at this point.
The IGlette is 15, and a typical teenage girl: talented, pretty, smart, hates herself.
Now to see what the boy brings home.
My daughter is 15 and she isn't into boys yet. She wants to be a crazy cat lady. This bothers me a lot. I want grandchildren.

Think about this. What is worse, wanting to be a crazy cat lady and accomplishing it, or wanting to be happily married and end up a crazy cat lady?
